  • RawKarateGirl I tried I tried I really wanted to but I cxannot drink too many gr.smoothies when it is cold.I work in the coldest place ever. Maybe I could join a gr. smoothie fast this springtime or summer. I envy you,good luck and let us know how you do!!!!

  • RawKarateGirlRawKarateGirl Raw Newbie

    Thanks mham! I will keep you posted.

  • Hi RawKarate Girl.. i’ll do it with you. i actually started today though.. it wasn’t so bad. what are you having for breakfast?

  • RawKarateGirlRawKarateGirl Raw Newbie

    Yeah!! I was hoping some one whould do it with me!!

  • RawKarateGirlRawKarateGirl Raw Newbie

    How many days are you doing it??? I was thinking maybe 3 an then I will see how I feel.

  • I was thinking 14 days then see how I feel. I want to do the 92 day juice feast. I keep putting it off because something comes up like a company party and they are going out of their way to buy me raw food so I have to eat it. Or My best friend from high school is flying all the way from Georgia to California to see me and I was going to wait until she left to start but I’m ready. She comes March 3rd. I’m feasting until then and if I can I will do it while she is here. If not I will eat light raw food and then start again when she leaves. I feel like I’m always making excuses for myself so it’s time to just shut up and start this thing!..

    Thats great!! keep me posted how you do.

  • I would love to join but I think I need to get a new blender first!

  • RawKarateGirlRawKarateGirl Raw Newbie

    I wish you could to smoothielove. I’m sure I will do it again soon.

  • RawKarateGirlRawKarateGirl Raw Newbie

    How are you doing so far steamboatkatie?? I messed up but will try again.

  • Im doing one right now too! Im easing myself into it though because I ate HORRIBLY this weekend lol

    So I’m doing smoothies for breakfast and lunch (with a half bottle of kombucha) and a raw dinner. Then a cup of Senna Leaf tea.

    How are things going for y’all??

  • today is my 3rd day. It was the hardest. The first day was the easiest. Luckily tomorrow is my friday so after my 3 day hump I’ll be able to rest and relax at home!

  • I have been thinking of doing this, and starting with one week. I’m just trying to figure out how to transport the smoothie to work. I guess a traditional thermos?

  • RawKarateGirlRawKarateGirl Raw Newbie

    I use a thermos and works good.

  • I am doing a juice fast right now. Started 2/18, so I am on day 4 today. Let me ask some gross questions (pleeeeeeeese):

    1 – I drink the senna tea everyday, day one and two had results, nothing since. I DO NOT want to to the enames. So must find different solution. I thought about the salt thing, and understand it gives quick results, but I need to know for how long? I only have a few hours in the morning, and can not stay home all day with the runs.

    2 – I felt great on raw (after a week of detox) now I feel the detox again, does it make sense, while on the diet everyone say: “listen to your body,” Isn’t feeling so bad, your body telling you to stop?

  • Hey Techelet. Today is my day 6. I have some of that senna tea so I might try that. But I did get the enema kit and I have done 2 of them. So yeah, it was weird but refreashing.. I’ve done the sea salt drink in the past when I was doing the master cleanse. I would get up 2 hours before I had to go anywhere and by the time I left I was fine. Just make sure you take the drink as soon as you get up. I was eating 100% raw for 3 months before I started doing the juice fast and today I’m detoxing hard. I have head aches, my tongue is yellow and my teeth feel like fur. I’m exausted and all I want to do is lay down. Hopefully tomorrow is better. I’ve just made a cacao juice and i’m going to take a shower to see if I feel better. I’m doing it with 3 other people here. my sister and our boyfriends. It’s funny when we are all together. One of us is always the happiest then a sad one then a pissed off one then a tired one. we all take turns with the moods. lol. But I have to keep telling myself this will pass.. Good luck

  • Thank you. I am doing it with my husband (not as easy as it sounds). He is sooooooo grampy the kids are tip-toeing around him (but we love him so, he gets to stay). today, day 4, I feel so much better, I still have headache, but also feel fresh and energetic. The cacao juice sound wonderful, and will be a good change from the usual salad juice. Can you share the recipe and how was it. To be on the safe side I am going to try the SWF on Satuarday. How long are you going for? I thought 7 days, but I will have to see, my husband has to get off on Friday evening, lets see what happens when it is just me.

  • My sister showed me how to make this.. in cacao juice I take 1/4 cup hemp seeds. 1/4 cup cashews. with 2 3/4 cup water. Blend for awhile until no chunks. while it’s blending I add I vanilla bean (seeds) , spoonful of coconut butter, 1 tbs spoon agave or honey, 2 big spoonfuls of cacao. When it’s done blending it’s warm. I have a vitamix so it blends really well. Sometimes I’ll take a double boiler and poor the blended mixture in and keep stiring for about 4 mins just to warm it a little more and then it’s like drinking hot chocolate! Yum. After I double boil it I put it back in the blender and it makes it frothy like a latte. I never heat it to where it is hot. not over 105 degrees. It never burns my mouth when I drink it. I know this sounds like a lot but it literally only takes me maybe 10 mins to make the drink. It’s plenty for my boyfriend and I to have big glasses full.

  • Sound amazing. I printed it out, I think it will be my first drink after coming off the Juice Fast. Yammmmmm.

  • Please,please let me know if anyone plans to do a green fast in the spring. So envious,keep going and let us all know how you are doing!

  • I’m gonna go for Global Juice Feasting but I’ll be tagging along two days behind since I have an important committee meeting on the 1st and will be eating at Cafe Gratitude (yum!). I’m thinking of doing a quick salt cleanse on the 2nd before starting on the juice feast.

  • Ilovesnowie, how does the salt cleanse work?
